I hope to record what I see and sketch on my daily walks around my home in Rural South Australia

Cattle grid

This is an alternate way of getting into a property instead of opening a gate. This one has wonderfully messed up sides to it which look as if it has been hit by trucks or tractors, it is to stop cattle from going through and next to it is a large and unweildy cocky gate, which I havent yet sketched, to allow stock through.I walked early this morning as it was so hot to find this grid down the road. I saw more on Kangaroo Island, they dont seem to be in use so much here but I think I know where there is another slightly different one.I have had fun finding rural fences and gates etc.
